While I'm still partial to Dave Bartholomew and Cosimo, I could come around to this, but while it's the right guy, it's the wrong artist (imho)!

If this rumor is true - Toussaint is long overdue.

Besides maybe Rodrigue, Michalopoulos probably has more commercial/demand/resale appeal than any other artist. It'll be interesting to see his take on Allen.

Hope this is true. And Allen is not only deserving, but also an interesting subject with his dapper gentlemanly style.

Now yer talkin' !!! Yeah you right.

Although, it could also be at SeaSaint Studios, with The Meters in the background...

I'm just sayin'. It's ALL good.

I had heard Michalopoulos say he wasn't going to do anymore Jazz Fest posters after Fats. Curious.

I have to agree with you that Dave Bartholomew & Cosimo Matassa should be the subjects, or at least included with Allen Toussant. All three are long over due.
